Certain aniline derivatives as microbicidal agents

ABSTRACT

New acylanilides are disclosed which act as microbicides. They may preferably be used for combating phytopathogenic fungi.

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 565,037 filed on Apr. 4,1975, now abandoned.

The present invention provides compounds of the formula I ##STR1##wherein R₁ represents alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 4carbon atoms or halogen, R₂ represents hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 3 carbonatoms, alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or halogen, R₇ represents hydrogen,alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or halogen,R₈ represents hydrogen or methyl, the total number of carbon atoms ofthe substituents R₁, R₂, R₇ and R₈ in the phenyl ring not exceeding 8, Xrepresents ##STR2## wherein each of R', R" and R'" independentlyrepresents hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl, and Y represents one of thefollowing groups: ##STR3## WHEREIN Hal is a halogen anion, (B) --O--R₄,

(c) --S--R₄, wherein R₄ represents alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, alkenylof 3 to 6 carbon atoms, alkinyl of 3 to 6 carbon atoms, each of themunsubstituted or substituted by a halogen atom, or R₄ represents benzylof phenyl which independently may be unsubstituted or substituted byhalogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or ##STR4## wherein each of R₅and R₆ independently represents alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Theinvention also provides a process for the manufacture of these compoundsas well as compositions which contain them as active substances and amethod of using these active substances as microbicides.

By alkyl or alkyl moiety of an alkoxy group are meant the followinggroups, depending on the number of the indicated carbon atoms: methyl,ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, sec. butyl, tert. butyl aswell as pentyl and hexyl and the isomers thereof. Alkenyl of 3 to 6carbon atoms denotes above all allyl, methylallyl and pentenyl; andalkinyl of 3 to 6 carbon atoms is above all prop-2-inyl (propargyl) andbut-2-inyl.

By halogens, which can also appear in the hydrocarbon radicals of R₄,are meant fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine.

The present invention is based on the surprising observation thatcompounds with the structure of the formula I have for practicalpurposes a very favourable microbicidal spectrum for protectingcultivated plants. Examples of cultivated plants within the scope ofthis invention are: cereals, maize, rice, vegetables, sugar-beet, soya,ground nuts, fruit trees, ornamental plants, but principally vines,hops, cucumber plants (cucumber, marrows, melons) and solanaceae, suchas potatoes, tobacco and tomatoes, as well as banana, cocoa and rubberplants.

With the active substances of the formula I it is possible to destroythe fungi which occur in plants or parts of plants (fruit, blossoms,leaves, stems, tubers, roots) of these and also related cultivations ofuseful plants and also to protect from such fungi the parts of plantswhich grow later. The active substances act against the phytopathogenicfungi which belong to the following classes: ascomycetes (erysiphaceae);basidiomycetes, above all rust fungi, fungi imperfecti (moniliales); butespecially against the oomycetes which belong to the class of thephycomycetes, e.g. phytophthora, peronospora, pseudoperonospora, pythiumor plasmopara. In addition, the compounds of the formula I have asystemic action. They can also be used as seed dressing agents forprotecting seeds (fruit, tubers, grains) and plant cuttings from fungusinfections as well as from phytopathogenic fungi which occur in thesoil.

Preferred microbicides are compounds of the formula I in which R₁represents methyl, R₂ is in ortho-position to the amino group andrepresents methyl, ethyl or chlorine, --X-R₃ represents the group##STR5## and Y,R₇, R₈, R', R" and R'" have the meanings previouslyassigned to them. These compounds will be referred to as group Ia.

Compounds of the group Ia to be singled out for special mention onaccount of their action are those wherein R₇ represents hydrogen,methyl, chlorine or bromine, R₈ represents hydrogen or methyl, R'represents methyl, R" represents hydrogen or methyl and R'" representsmethyl or ethyl, and wherein Y represents one of the following groups:

(a') ##STR6## (b') --OR₄ or (c')--SR₄, wherein R₄ represents alkyl of 1to 4 carbon atoms, allyl, chloroallyl, 3-methylallyl, propargyl, phenyl,4-methylphenyl, 4-chlorophenyl, 2,4-dichlorophenyl, 4-tert. butylphenyl,benzyl or 4-chlorobenzyl,

(d') ##STR7## wherein R₅ represents hydrogen or methyl and R₆ representsmethyl. These compounds will be referred to as group Ib.

An important group of microbicidal compounds belonging to this group Ibcomprises those compounds wherein each of R₇ and R₈ independentlyrepresents hydrogen or methyl, R' represents methyl, R" representshydrogen, R'" represents methyl or ethyl, and wherein Y represents --OR₄or --S-R₄, in which R₄ represents methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl,butyl, sec. butyl or tert. butyl (group Ic).

An important subgroup of microbicidal compounds within the scope of theformula I comprises those of the formula Id ##STR8## wherein R₁represents alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbon atomsor halogen, R₂ represents hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms orhalogen, X represents ##STR9## wherein each of R', R" and R'"independently represents hydrogen, methyl or ethyl, and Y represents oneof the following groups: ##STR10## wherein Hal is a halogen anion,--S-R₄, wherein R₄ represents alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms or phenylwhich is unsubstituted or substituted by halogen or alkyl of 1 to 4carbon atoms, ##STR11## wherein each of R₅ and R₆ independentlyrepresents an alkyl radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.

A further group of preferred compounds for regulating plant growthcomprises those compounds of the formula I in which R₁ represents methylor ethyl, R₂ is in ortho-position to the amino group and representsmethyl, ethyl or chlorine, --X-R₃ represents the group -CH₂ -CON(R")(R'"), and Y represents -S-R₄ and R₄, R₇, R₈, R" and R'" have themeanings previously assigned to them.

By plant growth regulation is meant primarily the retarding control ofnatural plant development, particularly the desirable reduction of thesize of the plant, especially the growth in height. This reduction ingrowth is observed in mono- and dicotyledonous plants, particularly ingrasses, cereal crops, soya or ornamental plants.

The compounds of the formula I are manufactured according to theinvention optionally

(A) by acylation of a compound of the formula II ##STR12## with acompound of the formula III ##STR13## or (B) by initialmonohaloacetylation of a compound of the formula II to give a compoundof the formula IV ##STR14## and by further reaction optionally with acompound of the formula V ##STR15## or with a mercaptan (or the alkalior alkaline earth salt thereof) of the formula

    H--S--R.sub.4

or with thiourea.

In the formulae II, III, IV and V, the symbols R₁ to R₈ and X have themeanings assigned to them in the formula I, and Hal' represents halogen,preferably chlorine or bromine, and M represents a metal cation,preferably an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal cation.

The reactions can be carried out in the presence or absence of solventsor dilutents which are inert to the reactants. Examples of suitablesolvents or diluents are: aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g.benzene, toluene, xylene, petroleum ether; halogenated hydrocarbons,e.g. chlorobenzene, methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, chloroform;ethers and ethereal compounds, e.g. dialkyl ethers, dioxan,tetrahydrofuran; nitriles, e.g. acetonitrile; N,N-dialkylated amides,e.g. dimethyl formamide; anhydrous acetic acid, dimethyl sulphoxide,ketones, e.g. methyl ethyl ketone, and mixtures of such solvents.

The reaction temperatures are between 0° and 180° C., preferably between20° C. and 120° C. It is often advantageous to use acid acceptors orcondensation agents. Suitable examples are: tertiary amines, e.g.trialkylamines (e.g. triethylamine), pyridine and pyridine bases, orinorganic bases, e.g. the oxides and hydroxides, hydrogen carbonates andcarbonates of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, as well as sodiumacetate. Moreover, in the first manufacturing method, it is alsopossible to use a surplus of the respective aniline derivative of theformula II as acid acceptor.

The process of manufacture A which proceeds from compounds of theformula II can also be carried out without acid acceptors; in someinstances it is expedient to pass in nitrogen in order to expel thehydrogen halide that has formed. In other instances it is veryadvantageous to use dimethyl formamide as reaction catalyst.

Particulars on the manufacture of the intermediates of the formula IIcan be inferred from the methods which are generally indicated for themanufacture of aniline-alkane acid esters in the following publications:

J. Org. Chem. 30, 4101 (1965); Tetrahedron 1967, 487; Tetrahedron 1967,493.

The compounds of the formula I in which ##STR16## contain anasymmetrical carbon atom (*) and can be resolved into the opticalantipodes in the customary manner. In this connection, the enantiomericD-form has the more pronounced microbicidal action.

Within the scope of the invention, those compounds, their compositionsand their use which refer to the D-configurations of the formula I areaccordingly preferred. These D-forms usually have in ethanol or acetonea negative angle of rotation.

The pure optical D-antipodes are obtained by manufacturing for examplethe racemic compound of the formula VI ##STR17## wherein R₁, R₂, R₇ andR₈ have the meanings assigned to them in formula I, and then reactingthe compound of the formula VI in known manner with anitrogen-containing, optically active base to give the correspondingsalt. The pure D-form is obtained stepwise by fractional crystallisationof the salt and subsequent liberation of the acid of the formula VIwhich is enriched with the optical D-antipode and, if appropriate,repeating (also several times) the salt formation, crystallisation andliberation of the α-anilino-propionic acid of the formula VI. From thispure D-form it is then possible, if desired, to manufacture in knownmanner, for example in the presence of HCl or H₂ SO₄, with methanol orethanol, the optical D-configuration of the ester falling under theformula II, or with the corresponding amine of formula HN(R")(R'"), theamide falling under the formula II, preferably via the acid halide. Asuitable optically active organic base is, for example,α-phenylethylamine.

Instead of the fractional crystallisation, it is also possible tomanufacture the enantiomeric D-form of the formula VII ##STR18## bydiazotising the amino group in the naturally occurring L-alanine in thepresence of e.g. HCl or HBr and thereby replacing it by halogenaccompanied by the splitting off of N₂ and with retention of theL-configuration, then, if appropriate, effecting esterification withmethanol or ethanol and subsequently reacting the ester with the anilineof the formula VIII ##STR19## when predominantly inversion to theD-configurations of the formula VII occurs (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 76, 6065).In the analogous manner it is also possible to manufacture in thismanner the amides in which R₃ =CON(R") (R'"). Irrespective of the citedoptical isomerism, an atropisomerism is observed about the phenyl--N<axis in those instances in which the phenyl ring is substituted at leastin 2,6-position and at the same time unsymmetrically to this axis (i.e.also on account of the presence of additional substituents as the casemay be). This phenomenon is occasioned by the steric hindrance of theradicals --X-R₃ and --CO-R₄.

Also irrespective of the optical isomerism, where R₄ is alkenyl acis/trans-isomerism can occur in the double bond.

Provided on synthesis with the object of isolating pure isomers iscarried out, a product will normally occur as a mixture of two opticalisomers, two atropisomers, two cis/trans-isomers or as a mixture ofthese possible isomers. However, the basically better fungicidal actionof the enantiomeric D-form (in comparison to the D,L-form or to theL-form) is retained and is not noticeably affected by the atropisomerismor the cis/trans-isomerism.

The following Examples will serve to illustrate the invention in moredetail but do not limit it to what is described therein. Unless statedto the contrary, an active substance of the formula I, which can occurin optionally active form, is always to be understood as meaning theracemic mixture.

EXAMPLE 1

Manufacture of ##STR20##N-(1'-methoxycarbonyl-ethyl-N-methoxyacetyl-2,3-dimethyl-6-ethylaniline.

(a) A mixture of 100 g of 2,3-dimethyl-6-ethylaniline, 223 g of2-bromopropionic acid methyl ester and 84 g of NaHCO₃ was stirred for 17hours at 140° C., then cooled, diluted with 300 ml of water andextracted with diethyl ether. The extract was washed with a small amountof water, dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and the ether wasevaporated. After the excess 2-bromopropionic acid methyl ester had beendistilled off, the crude product was distilled in a high vacuum; b.p.88°-90° C./0.04 Torr.

(b) A mixture of 11 g of the ester obtained according to (a), 6.5 g ofmethoxyacetyl chloride, 2 ml of dimethyl formamide and 250 ml of abs.toluene was stirred at room temperature and refluxed for 1 hour. Thesolvent was evaporated off and and the crude product then distilled invacuo; b.p. 126°-132° C./0.08 Torr.

The D-forms of both cis/trans-isomers (compounds 65 a and 65 b) areobtained by acylating the pure D-form ofα-(2,3-dimethyl-6-ethylanilino)-propionic acid methyl ester withmethoxyacetic acid or with one of the reactive derivatives thereof.

EXAMPLE 4 Action against Phytophthora infestans on Solanum lycopersicum(tomatoes) (Ia) Residual preventive action

Solanum lycopersicum plants of the "Roter Gnom" variety are infectedwhen 3 weeks old with a zoospore suspension of Phytophthora infestansafter they have been sprayed with a broth prepared from the activesubstance processed to a wetable powder and containing 0.05% of activesubstance, and dried. They are then kept for 6 days in a climaticchamber at 18° to 20° and high humdity, which is produced with anartificial wet fog. After this time typical leaf specks appear. Theirnumber and size are the criterion for evaluating the tested substance.

(Ib) Curative action:

"Rotor Gnom" tomato plants are sprayed when 3 weeks old with a zoosporesuspension of the fungus and incubated in a climatic chamber at 18° to20° C. and saturated humdity. The humidifying is interrupted after 24hours. After the plants have dried, they are sprayed with a broth whichcontains the active substance formulated as wettable powder in aconcentration of 0.05%. After the spray coating has dried, the plantsare again kept in the humid chamber for 4 days. Size and number of thetypical leaf specks which have occured during this time are thecriterion for evaluating the effectiveness of the tested substances.

(II) Preventive-systemic action

The active substance is applied as wettable powder in a concentration of0.05% (referred to the volume of the soil) to the surface of the soil of3 weeks old "Rotor Gnom" tomatoes in pots. Three days later theunderside of the leaves of the plants are sprayed with a zoosporesuspension of Phytophthora infestans. The plants are then kept for 5days in a spray chamber at 18° to 20° C. and saturated humdity, afterwhich time typical leaf specks form. The size and number of the specksserve as criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of the testedsubstance.

In these three tests, the compounds of the formula I effect a pronouncedleaf-fungicidal action. A fungus infection of less than 20% (averagevalues) is observed on application of the compounds of the subgroup Iain which R'=methyl. The fungus infection is almost completely inhibited(0-5%) with compounds 1, 2, 4, 5, 11, 18, 24, 28, 29, 33, 39, 118, 374,378 and others. A fungus infection of less than 20% (average values) isobserved when compounds 7, 9, 12, 16, 20, 30, 31, 32, 35, 36, 38, 44,65, 97, 98. 120, 130, 155, 157, 158, 159, 168, 199, 204, 222, 259, 272,281, 328, 331, 337, 350 and others are applied in an active substanceconcentration of only 0.02%.

EXAMPLE 5 Action against Plasmopara viticola (Bert. et Curt.) (Berl. etde Toni) on vines (a) Residual preventive action

Vine cuttings of the variety "Chasselas" were reared in a greenhouse.Three plants in the 10 leaf stage were sprayed with a broth preparedfrom the active substance and formulated as a wettable powder. After thecoating layer had dried, the plants were infected on the underside ofthe leaves with the spore suspension of the fungus. The plants weresubsequently kept for 8 days in a humid chamber, after which timesymptoms of the disease were visible on the control plants. The numberand size of the infected areas on the treated plants served as criterionfor evaluating the effectiveness of the tested active substances.

(b) Curative action

Vine cuttings of the variety "Chasselas" were reared in a greenhouse andinfected in the 10 leaf stage with a spore suspension of Plasmoparaviticola on the underside of the leaves. After they had been kept for 24hours in a humid chamber, the plants were sprayed with an activesubstance broth prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance.

The plants were then kept for a further 7 days in a humid chamber, afterwhich time the symptoms of the disease were visible on the controlplants. The size and number of the infected areas served as criterionfor evaluating the effectiveness of the tested substances.

In both these tests the compounds of the formula I effected a pronouncedfungicidal action. Without exception the fungus infection was reduced toless than 20% with the compounds cited in Example 4. Almost no infection(0-5%) occurred after application with a number of compounds, e.g.compounds, 1, 2, 4, 5, 18, 28, 29, 30, 33, 118.

EXAMPLE 6 Action against Erisyphe graminis on Hordeum vulgare (barley)Residual protective action

Barley plants c. 8 cm in height were sprayed with a spray broth (0.05%active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the activesubstance. After 48 hours the treated plants were dusted with conidia ofthe fungus. The infected barley plants were stood in a greenhouse at a.22° C. and the fungus infection was evaluated after 10 days.

Immediately after sowing, the testpreparations formulated as wettable powders are poured in the form ofaqueous suspensions over the soil (20 ppm of active substance referredto the volume of the soil). The pots are then stood for 2-3 weeks in agreenhouse at 20°-24° C. The soil is kept uniformly moist by gentlyspraying it with water. The emergence of the sugar beet plants as wellas the number of healthy and sick plants are ascertained in evaluatingthe tests.

(b) Action after seed dressing application

The fungus is cultivated on sterile oat grains and added to a mixture ofearth and sand. Flower pots are filled with the infected soil and sugarbeet seeds which have been treated with the test preparations formulatedas seed dressing powders are sown therein (1000 ppm of active substancereferred to the weight of the seeds). The pots are then stood in agreenhouse for 2-3 weeks at 20°-24° C. The soil is kept uniformly moistby gently spraying it with water. The emergence of the sugar beet plantsas well as the number of healthy and sick plants are ascertained.

Under the conditions of both test (a) and test (b), more than 85% of thesugar beet plants emerged after treatment with one of the activesubstance of the formula I and had a healthy appearance. Less than 20%of the control plants emerged and had in part a sickly appearance.

EXAMPLE 8 Growth inhibition of grasses

On a prepared outdoor lawn consisting of the grasses Lolium perenne, Poapratensis and Festuca rubra, parcels measuring 3 m² were sprayed 2 daysafter the first cutting in spring with aqueous preparations of an activesubstance of the formula I. The amount of active substance usedcorresponded to a rate of application of 5 kg per hectare. Untreatedparcels were left as controls. The average growth in height of thegrasses in treated and untreated parcels was ascertained 6 weeks afterthe application. The turf treated with the active substances wasuniformly compact and had a healthy appearance. Active substances of theformula I especially, wherein --X-R₃ represents the radical--CO--N(R")(R'") and Y represents --S-R₄ defined for the formula I,effected a pronounced growth inhibition.
